Summer 2024 Internship
Beginning July 8th, 2024
Meet our Interns
Hi my names Jason Bhimani and I’m a 2024 Arcscholars intern. Architecture has always been an interest of mine since I was young, but I never had the resources available to learn about the field. Thanks to ARCscholars I’ve been able to gain some insight on the work architects do and this summer I have the opportunity to work alongside them and get hands on experience with different firms. I’m excited to begin my internship and see what the day in the life is of an architect.
Hi my names RaynaSanaa Boyd, Everyone calls me Rayna for short. I’m a 2024 Arcscholars intern. I never really had a passion for anything, until I discovered Architecture. Thanks to ARCscholars I’ve been able to gain the point of view on a architectural work ethic. This summer I have the opportunity to work with them and get hands on experience with different firms. I’m super grateful to begin my internship with the mindsets of the great architects.
We are grateful to our host offices for giving our talented ARCscholars interns hands on experience in profession.
ABOUT ARCSCHOLARS
Marcy Houses Site Walk, Spring 2023
ARCscholars was born out of an idea to engage with young adults living in New York City Housing Authority developments to explore their potential to become architects. Many young adults know that they want to engage with the built environment but don’t have the language or access to the formal education needed to pursue that goal.
That’s where ARCscholars comes in.
This is a program that introduces architecture and design to NYCHA young adults through the study of a specific NYCHA development. These students are joined and mentored by City Tech Architecture students, and together the cohort embarks on an architectural journey. Together the scholars investigate the existing conditions at the selected campus and collaboratively determine design improvements. The scholars meet with leaders within the NYCHA community, are mentored by architectural and urban design professionals, and workshop together. The students creatively integrate the words of the leadership, their peers, and their personal experiences into the designs.
The goal is to continue to grow ARCscholars and to find ways to launch our students into professional architectural education and the career opportunities that it affords.
